Dining Near Epic Universe

Dining Near Epic Universe on International Drive

Universal's Epic Universe opened in May 2025 as the largest and most ambitious theme park built in Orlando in over two decades. Located at 1001 Epic Blvd in southwest Orlando, the park features five themed worlds — Celestial Park, Super Nintendo World, How to Train Your Dragon Isle of Berk, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter Ministry of Magic, and Dark Universe — with over 50 rides, attractions, and experiences drawing millions of visitors each year.

Inside the park, dining options include The Atlantic (fine dining in Celestial Park), Mead Hall (Viking banquet hall in Isle of Berk), The Blue Dragon (Pan-Asian in Celestial Park), and Toadstool Cafe (themed dining in Super Nintendo World). These are excellent but they operate at theme park prices, with long waits during peak hours and limited reservation availability.

Outside the park, the International Drive corridor stretching north from Epic Universe is one of the most concentrated restaurant districts in Orlando. Within a 3–5 mile drive, guests can find Italian, steaks, seafood, Mexican, Japanese, and more — all at off-site prices with full bars, happy hours, and a more relaxed pace. ICON Park, about 3 miles north, is a popular post-park dinner destination with several sit-down restaurants, entertainment, and easy rideshare access from Epic Universe.

Vincenzo Cucina Italiana has been on International Drive at ICON Park since 2014 and serves guests coming from Epic Universe, Universal Studios, the Convention Center, SeaWorld, and the surrounding resort hotels nightly. The restaurant offers a 10% dinner discount for anyone with an Epic Universe ticket or annual pass.

How to Get to Vincenzo from Epic Universe

By rideshare: Request an Uber or Lyft from the Epic Universe entrance. Tell the driver ICON Park on International Drive. The ride is about 3 miles and takes less than 10 minutes. Drop-off is right at the restaurant.

By car: Head north on International Drive from Epic Universe for about 3 miles. Vincenzo is at ICON Park, 8255 International Drive. Complimentary valet parking every evening — pull up and hand over the keys.

Timing: Most guests leave Epic Universe between 5 and 6 PM. For a 6:00 or 6:30 dinner reservation, leave the park by 5:30. Vincenzo opens at 5 PM nightly, 7 days a week.
